I hope for a speedy recovery.

Praying for him and his family, like there wasn't already enough stress.  Wishing him a speedy recovery

About twenty years ago my mother had seizures and it was discovered that she had a large brain tumor . It was removed and today she is 83 . Fingers crossed that all goes well for Aaron .

[Brett Matthews]

Anyone have any updates on his surgery?

[Glenn]

Hasn't happened yet.  It starts little more than 2 hours away.

Thanks Glenn

I understand with covid19 virus Aaron's family isn't allowed at bedside, this is hard to imagine the worry they all must be going through. Support is very important for Aaron, Lesley and family during this time, please pray.

Please send him the entire Forum family's best wishes for a successful surgery and rapid recovery.

 

Tell him we are looking forward to seeing him in his boat back on the water later this year.

 

So he has to do what they say at dog obedience schools: Heal!

Being from the Midwest I don't know Aaron like some of you guys...but I remember seeing him in bassmasters as far back as the classic in Pittsburg think that was 2005.I've always been a huge fan and very intrigued by his approach with finesse which at first was unique but now is common place a lot of which is because of him. He has been one of my favorites for years. My girlfriend is by no means a fishing fan or up on the sport but even she was like oh no not A-mart...which I think speaks volumes on his impact and appeal when someone who isn't even interested in the sport is still a big fan. I watched Luke Dunkins new podcast last night on youtube where he and Cody Meyer told stories and kinda just paid tribute to there friend during these trying times for hum. If you have time you should check it out..it's always nice to see people show appreciation for someone whose a great angler and sounds like an even better human.

Thoughts and prayers.  Sounds like everything is going well.  I'm glad he got to go home quickly, being in the hospital without family and friends being able to visit right now would be terrible.

 

It's amazing what they can do for these.  Last April I was diagnosed with a tangerine-sized brain tumor (non-cancerous thankfully).  I had surgery to remove it on a Tuesday morning, went home on Thursday and the next Tuesday morning I was back in the office at work.  I attribute that to the skill of my surgeon and the entire medical team.  

[Glenn]

Aaron is back home now, resting comfortably.

Absolutely!  Glad to hear you came through it just fine!

He is able to walk around now. Waiting on test results to determine next steps.  Recovery is going well.

Results? They should know the morphology now if the tumor was benign or malignant. Very stressful for Aaron and his family to go though all this. Walking is always good, thank you for the updates.
